Despite repeated warnings from the Pentagon, Barack Obama rejected three plans to recover or destroy drone.
Con Underground was the first to report on this latest disaster.

Jennifer Griffin reported this yesterday on FOX News.

Obama rejected three different proposals to recover or destroy the US drone that is now in the hands of the Iranian regime.

Probably a good decision on Obama's part. Recovering the drone would mean going into Iran. Too risky. Better decision would be to stop the drone operations all together.

Well I agree with that, but - from what I understood it could have been destroyed remotely.

If the Iranians were able to detect the drone with their radar and take it out of the air intact, I doubt they will learn much from the technology that they don't already know.

This.

Plus if Iran of all places can detect this type of stealth, then we have something infinitely better that hasn't been made public.

That's definitely true. I'm sure most of the 'UFO' sightings are advanced drones being tested out.

umm... don't believe everything you hear in the media. :p;)

No need to retrieve it. I'm confident Lockheed provided a pretty good warranty with that baby! :)

Seems an ongoing battle to figure out which media sources are factual or fictional, or at least a little bent!

[Brian4Liberty]

Should have destroyed it, one way or another.

On a completely unrelated topic, the reporter in the OP has always given me the creeps.

There are few very "doubtful" about the whole thing...

The U.S. RQ-170 Sentinel stealth drone has been designed to evade radar systems and from the view point of technology it is amongst the most recent types of advanced aircraft. According from the images appears to be fully intact (or at least placed back together after crash landing). Therefore Iran has capabilities and money to have very advance stealth technology and take countermeasures with its air defense systems against USA's best advance technologies costing in trillions.

Even the experts doubt the whole incident: (quoted from intelligence expert and drone experts from various intelligence publications)
if you compare the drone's picture of the real Lockheed RQ-170 from the top 2 pictures from USAF with the gymnasium showroom .... it does not feel right by instinct; the specs have things wrong; the way it covers the bottom; it cost trillions of dollars of almost 50 years of advance technology (Ultra high frequency encrypted signaling, software modeled aerodynamics and composites materials science, and radar absorptive surfaces) put in an aircraft with Iran having no access to those (if they do USA has crap for counter intelligence and national security); even radars will have a hard time tracking this drones let alone change their codes and override its robotic avionics; a few hundred feet would have made very big impact impression (spy drones are not put to spy where its low enough to be seen - what's the use of stealth missions); any loss will trigger it to self distract, which means the technology of impoverish Iran is far advance than USA; "if you've flown other R/C aircraft, could you suddenly take halfway decent control of one, whose flight characteristics you aren't familiar with, if its operator suddenly handed off the controller to you, that requires fewer assumptions than the possibility that they had the knowledge to take over the controls, and bring it to a safe landing...?"; the staging for a war incident like the Gulf of Tonkin by media manipulation and fakery seems to remind experts....

Why didn't they destroy it remotely?

Because they wanted Iran to have it.

Yes with remote controlled Avenger drones. It´s not like it has a self destruct mechanism, otherwise pentagon would not present three cases for retrieving or destroying it, just one which would be push the button. The pentagons cases were almost certainly acts of war. In fact flying the plane in iranian airspace was already an act of war.
